I moved up the 2.5 release date by a bit. Ideally, I wanted to have the final on July 27 which corresponds to OSCON. This seems too aggressive since I haven't updated the schedule publicly. So the new schedule has rc1 slated for July 27. http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0356/ So far we've only had very few 2.5 bug reports for the first 2 alphas. Hopefully people really are testing. :-)

This isn't up on python.org, please post the current schedule here. Another point: with the Need For Speed sprint, should we perhaps allot some time for any new code to gel? Or is none of that code slated for 2.5?

Also, there is a sprint in Arlington VA.

Both sprints will likely fix bugs, apply long standing patches, and improve performance for Py2.5.

Also, we could use another bugday after the next alpha.

Some "gelling" time would be helpful.
